Nr. Schindler, Commander of Barret
 Post 0. A. R., returned yesterday from the annual encampment at St. Loeks.
 In conversation with him, he said our mineral exhibit was placed in tho exhi- bition building where it could be seen to the best advantage, and that it csus- cd almost universal comment on the excellence of the display. Thsre seem- cd to be an almost universal desiFe on the part of the eastern people to learn all about Arizona. He says . much larger number of papers and pamphlets could have been distributed, and that great care was necessary on the part of those having the interests of Arizona in clarge to place the books and papers where they would do the most good. Ar. Schindler speaks very highly of the kind and courteous manner m which the Arizona delegation was received and the hospitable manner in which they wore entertained during their stay. He say the people c this section may rest assured that the resources of this part of Arizona were properly presented. and that we may look very coon for substantial results from the exhibit. He feels sure that the labors in connec- ton with 1t was an effort that will we'll repay this section for the time and money invested.

An attempt has been made at Mani toba in crossing wild buffalo and . Durham COW, and has been attended with success. MT. Bedson is the first to try this novel and happy idea. He is the proprietor of the only herd of :buffa- loes in the northwest. The cross pro duces an animal larger and more hardy than the domestic and which are more easily wintered. 1.-The flesh of the ani- mal," says NIT. Bedson, "is better than that of the domestic. the hide more furry, rende ring also better service than that of pure blood" Mr. Bedson says that he accomplished the croes without any difficulty or trouble, and thinks the cross can be effected with the common COW as well as the Durham. He has tried only the latter, but intends to make . trial with the Rolled Angus and

There is just about e much sense in removing the l,300 Apaches to the Verde reservation as there would be to import the small pox from one locality to another, simply because one was cursed with the disease and the other was not It is true the southern part of the Territory has been overrun with those brutes for years, but that is no good reason why the same punishment should be inflicted upon our northern neighbor. We favor the removal of the cured Apache, but we say send them to Florida where the mosquitoes and sand flies will make it 90 interesting for them that they will have no time to plot . raid on their white neighbors .-Ad- vance.

 Judge Wright, recently. in Ban Fran cisco, decided that . newspaper re- porter cannot be put upon the witness stand and compelled to divulgs the source of information, of any item of news he may have published in his paper, the court holding that such . proceeding would he against public policy, e the public look to the news- papers for news, and any method by which they could be compelled to di- vulge their information would close to them many sources of important inior- nation. Such decision vss foreshad- owed in the attempt by Congress to make Hallett Kilbourn divulge certain matters that gave him points on Con- gressional rascality. In that case it was dec,ded that . congressional commis- sion could not compel . man te answer any question he should refuse to an- swer, but the broader question of privi- lege communications was touched upon and its decision in the way the San Francisco court has just decided it was plainly ioreshadowed.-Ex.

 The Walnut Grove water storage res- ervoir is huge success and one of the most important works in the southwest, e it leads the way and demonstrates, beyond a doubt, the practicability of constructing and operating great sto- rage reservoirs in our mountains. A gentleman. during the recent rains, made . measurement of the water com. ing down the Agua Fra, in the western part of the valley, and from careful esti- mates, informs the Hersld reporter that enough water came down that stream every twenty-iour hous to thoroughly irrigate 5000 abres of land for three months. With such immenss quanti- ties of water going to waste and such . beautiful and rich area of land upon which it could be poured, 1t is . matter of but short time before other great reservoirs will be constructed for the purpose of irrigating the lands in the of the valley which cannot be got at by the waters of the river.-Phe- nix Hereld.

Blaekmailers Trapped.

CLEVELAND, October 14.-Ruth White
field, 10 years of age, and her aunt Emma
Whiteield, 10 years old, who live at No.
AZ Hervlet street, have beon arrested on
charge Of blackmailing, preferred by
Prof. Albert A. Nicholson of Case school
Of applied sciences and a teacher of high
rank. Ruth Whitefeld was recently en-
ployed in the family of Prof. Nicholson
Last Saturday the professor claims the
girl anu her aHnt visited him and after
charging him with misconduct with Ruth
they offered to settle the affair. Ruth
wanted $3.50 and the aunt said S25 was her
share for refusing toexpose the professor
Mr.. Nicholson pretended to accept the
terms and invited them to gall at his Office
In Case school at n on next day. The
women were on hand at the appointed
hour and SO we're persons who had been
invited to hear the conversation between
the professor and his =aecnsers. After the
statements made on Saturday were repeat
ed, hIr Nicholson stepped to the door anG
called too detective and an officer who
was III waiting outsia I, The Momef
were openly accused Of blaekmail and

Montana F'Iourishing.

WASHINGTON, October 13.Gov. Leslie
in his annual report to the secretary of the
interior, estimates the present population
of Montana at 10000. an increase of TO-
900 during the past year. Tie present
year has been most favorable for the pro-
duction Of all staple crops. The yields
have been very large. On the subject of
stock raising the governor says that pre-
vious to the present year this industry was
in a most prosperous condition, but the
last terrible winter was disastrous. In
consequence stoekmen are giving greater
attention 10 tie protection of tile herds.
the governor estimates the number OF
cattle in the territory at 400 600; horses,
900; and sheep, 5000. 900; all Of high
grade. One million dallars wortIo of wool
# Elas been produced and shipped this year
The total assessed value Of taxable prop.

vestments in mining. A conservative es-
innate of the yield of the mines in gold,
silver, lead and copper for the last year
is $26,00O,000. Coal has become an i'm
portant element in the mining industry Of
the territory.
The governor says he has information
that large areas of land donated to the ter
ritory by the government for school pur-
poses are now unlawfeily occupied by
people who fence them in and live upon
their productions, greatly to the injury of
the territory and asks that all such per-
sons be Immediately compelled to yacate.
He recommends the establishment of re-
fnery in connection with the United
States assay office at Helena. He says
there has been little trouble with the In
dians except from occasional horse steal
ing raids. These outrages says the gov
ernor, tend naturally to arouse a spirit of
resentment which will develop into a bel
ligerent form in the early future if not
prevented by troops and firm measures
In conclusion the report says: "Montana's
interests have been greatly cramped and
her progress much retarded on the ac-
count of the alien land laws. That law so far
it has stopped or will prevent aliens from
grasping and holding great and extensive
areas OF land may be unobiectionable, but
the provision which excludes foreign cap
ital from investments in our mines is a
great injury and hinderance to our people.
